Let South Florida be a wave of BLUE SHIRTS on October 4th. After making national headlines for having some of the most horrific bullying attacks, (Michael Brewer, doused in alcohol and set on fire by bullies and Josie Ratley nearly beaten to death by another teen), it is time to take back South Florida in a positive direction.
October 3rd thru the 9th is National Bullying Prevention Awareness Week and STOMP Out Bullying is asking everyone to make October 4th the day that bullying and cyberbullying prevention is heard around the world by wearing a BLUE SHIRT in solidarity to STOMP Out Bullying™!
Whether you are in Broward, Dade or Palm Beach County, get your schools, neighborhoods and communities involved! Let our country and the world know we are not taking it anymore.
Since 1999, Love Our Children USA™ has been the national nonprofit leader in fighting all forms of violence against children. STOMP Out Bullying™ is a signature program of our organization.
Florida has made the news again recently. James Jones defended his disabled daughter after she was taunted and bullied on a public school bus, as another Florida mother, April Newcomb, encouraged her daughter to fight! The video says it all and it is appalling.
The father, James Jones, quickly recognized his wrong doing, and apologized to the the kids on the bus while April Newcomb was arrested and now being charged with child abuse.
Isn't it time Florida is seen on national television in a positive light? Get your BLUE SHIRTS today and on Saturday, October 4th, let your voice be heard!
